Damn, you underrated this hard

5 + 2.5 = 3.5?
(b-sides kind of suck)

Album Rating: 3.5

I Promise is so lovely

So I made a killer playlist of Radiohead B-sides a while back if anyone's interested:

1. Coke Babies
2. Million Dollar Question
3. The Trickster
4. Talk Show Host
5. Man of War
6. Polyethylene (Parts 1 & 2)
7. Melatonin
8. Cuttooth
9. Fog
10. Last Flowers
11. Up on the Ladder
12. These Are My Twisted Words
13. The Daily Mail
14. Spectre
15. Ill Wind
16. Staircase
17. Harry Patch (In Memory Of)
18. Gagging Order

Ouch. I quite like 'Pearly', it has a sort of focus and ferocity that is lacking from PH.

I’m just glad you started it with coke babies. One of my fav b-sides, so underrated.

I’d also include India Rubber

meeting in the aisle is so cool yo

YOU'RE MY MAN OF WAR

I hate this album cover

It looks like OK Computer rot and is gross now

It's weird seeing the first few pages of this thread literally being an existential crisis of whether or not Ok Computer is unfairly treated on this site (?), underrated on this site (??), or if this review would too negatively effect the album on Metacritic (???).

Still haven't listened to the full b-sides disc, but from what I've heard Lift and How I Made My Millions are by far the best thing on there.

Also yea speaking of b-sides, Talk Show Host is probably the best ever for Radiohead.

The fan recording of Thom playing True Love Waits live back during The Bends era is also stellar and way better than the album version, but that's not really a b-side, still some neat extra material though.

ALA!!!!!!!!!!!!

@noler exactly two years late but hell yeah, glad Radiohead went shoegaze even if just for one song. That playlist was basically inspired by/spawned from a much shorter one Doof posted around the time of this comp's release - I thought it was earlier in this thread but I was mistaken

I love how the Wikipedia reviews are all 5/5, 10/10, A+ and there’s a single one from sputnik that’s 3.6/5.

Probably why Wikipedia and Sputnikmusic had/still have? such a rocky relationship.
